GLEE Stars Darren Criss & Lea Michele Talk Finchel, Klaine and Life in Lima & NYC
September 27, 2012 by Kath Skerry
The McKinley High New Directions have gone in all different directions in GLEE’s fourth season. While change can be good, it certainly comes with some growing pains. Two of GLEE’s most popular characters – Blaine Anderson and Rachel Berry – know all too well what it’s like to have their lives turned all topsy-turvy. Rachel is finally living the dream in NYC, but without Finn by her side. And now that Kurt has become roomies with Rachel, Blaine is on his own for the first time since his Dalton days.
GIVE ME MY REMOTE.com caught up with Darren Criss and Lea Michele at the GLEE Season Four premiere where the two talked about the changes their characters are undergoing this season, what life is like without their significant others by their side, and how life on the GLEE set feels different now that the cast is not together every day.

These videos have been held hostage on my iPhone for too long. I never thought I would be able to post them. Sorry for the vertical display…but hey, at least you can see them. Whew!
Darren, i love you ♥
Thank you for freeing these videos from their iPhone captivity, Kath! Appreciate it.
Darren is just such a bubbly, adorable person. I love seeing him answer questions in video, it’s always so much better than just getting a transcript of what he said. I mean, I must have read that quote about Blaine “going off the deep end” and “becoming maniacal” a few times already, but it comes off less harsh and a lot more playful when you see the tone with which it was delivered.
Also, I just love his eyes. *swoon*
Ouch, Klaine is AWESOME!
I just love Lea and Darren so much, and it kind of burns that they’re in different places — will I ever get another duet? That aside though, scared/excited about the coming episodes. I just have to remind myself that Klaine will find their way back together no matter what.
TOP dawgs! Freaking talented shorties I love the so much it hurts.
#FinchelForever give me my happy ending NOW!
thanks for the interviews
Thanks so much for the interviews! I second the request for these two to duet together again.
Thank you so much for these interviews. They were really great. I love Darren Criss. I think he is a wonderful actor and singer. Lea Michele is wonderful too. I hope that they get to sing some duets together sometime because their voices really blend well together. I loved their duet for West Side Story episode. Thanks again.
Love Finn and Rachel together but understand that they are going through some rough patch lately, but hope that if they can’t be together now, that they just keep each of them single and independent and focus their individual stories on them working towards achieving their dreams. This could showcase their undeniable talents without complicating the stories with gratuitous angst, and would also be more aligned with Glee’s overall message of the underdogs overcoming challenges and be successful in their own right. I think the general audience have never really looked to Glee for angst and drama; they could get that from other better-written drama shows. Glee needs to reclaim its top spot in the comedy category.
With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into
any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement?
My blog has a lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods to help protect against content from being stolen? I’d truly appreciate it.
Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.

Hey there! I’ve been following your web site for some time now and finally got the
courage to go ahead and give you a shout out from Lubbock Texas!
Just wanted to say keep up the great job!
I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A few of my blog visitors have complained about my website not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Firefox. Do you have any recommendations to help fix this problem?
I am curious to find out what blog platform you are working with? I’m experiencing some minor security problems with my latest website and I would like to find
something more safeguarded. Do you have any solutions?
Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips and hints for beginner blog writers? I’d really appreciate it.
Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective.
A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance. I must say you have done a very good job with this. In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Internet explorer. Excellent Blog!
Do you mind if I quote a couple of your posts as long as I provide credit and sources back to your site? My blog is in the exact same area of interest as yours and my visitors would definitely benefit from a lot of the information you present here. Please let me know if this okay with you. Many thanks!
Howdy would you mind letting me know which hosting company you’re working with?
I’ve loaded your blog in 3 different web browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you recommend a good web hosting provider at a fair price? Kudos, I appreciate it!
Very good blog you have here but I was wondering if you knew of any message boards that cover the same topics talked about in this article? I’d really love to be a part of group where
I can get comments from other experienced individuals that share
the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks a lot!
Good day! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted
to give a quick shout out and say I genuinely enjoy reading your posts.
Can you suggest any other blogs/websites/forums that cover the
same subjects? Thank you!
Do you have a spam problem on this website; I also
am a blogger, and I was wanting to know your situation;
many of us have developed some nice procedures and we are looking to
trade strategies with others, be sure to shoot me an email
if interested.
Please let me know if you’re looking for a writer for your blog. You have some really good articles and I believe I would be a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d love to write some articles for
your blog in exchange for a link back to mine. Please blast me an email if interested.
Many thanks!
Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. But imagine if you added some great visuals or video clips
to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and
video clips, this blog could undeniably be one
of the greatest in its field. Wonderful blog!
Neat blog! Is your theme custom made or did you
download it from somewhere? A design like yours with
a few simple adjustements would really make my blog shine.
Please let me know where you got your theme. Thank you
Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m planning to start my
own blog soon but I’m having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for
something completely unique. P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had
to ask!
Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Opera.
I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know.
The style and design look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon.
Kudos
With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement?
My website has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my permission. Do you know any ways to help prevent content from being stolen? I’d truly appreciate it.
Have you ever considered writing an e-book or guest authoring on other blogs?
I have a blog based upon on the same ideas you discuss and would really like to
have you share some stories/information. I know my subscribers would value your work.
If you’re even remotely interested, feel free to send me an email.
Howdy! Someone in my Facebook group shared this site with us so I came to look it over. I’m definitely
enjoying the information. I’m book-marking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Wonderful blog and great design and style.
Great blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers? I’m hoping
to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely confused .
. Any recommendations? Kudos!
My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on several websites for about a year and am
anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard great
things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it?
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
Does your website have a contact page? I’m having a tough time locating it but, I’d like to shoot you an e-mail.
I’ve got some creative ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great site and I look forward to seeing it develop over time.
It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d certainly donate to this superb blog!
I suppose for now i’ll settle for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to fresh updates and will share this blog with my Facebook group. Chat soon!
Greetings from Florida! I’m bored at work so I decided to check out your blog
on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the knowledge you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m shocked at how fast your blog loaded on
my cell phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, great site!
Good day! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!
Currently it seems like WordPress is the top blogging platform available right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?
Excellent post but I was wondering if you could write a litte more on this topic? I’d be very
thankful if you could elaborate a little bit more.
Thank you!
Hello! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could locate a captcha plugin for my comment form?
I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having problems
finding one? Thanks a lot!
When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment
is added I get four emails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
Appreciate it!
Good day! This is my first visit to your blog! We are
a group of volunteers and starting a new project in a community in
the same niche. Your blog provided us valuable information to work
on. You have done a outstanding job!
Hi! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog
platform are you using for this site? I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had issues
with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
Hey there! This post couldn’t be written any better!
Reading this post reminds me of my old room mate!
He always kept talking about this. I will forward this article to him.
Fairly certain he will have a good read. Many thanks for sharing!
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally,
it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
You definitely know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on
just posting videos to your site when you could
be giving us something informative to read?
Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea
shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone
and tested to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just
so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she
has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to
share it with someone!
I was curious if you ever considered changing the page layout of your site?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to
say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content
so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures.
Maybe you could space it out better?
Hello, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar
one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam responses?
If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?
I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any help is very much appreciated.
This design is spectacular! You certainly know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
I’m truly enjoying the design and layout of your website. It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more pleasant for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create your theme? Exceptional work!
Hello there! I could have sworn I’ve been to this site before but after reading through
some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely glad I found it and I’ll be book-marking and checking back frequently!
Hey there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my twitter group? There’s a lot of folks that I
think would really appreciate your content.
Please let me know. Thank you
Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your website in Opera, it looks fine
but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, awesome blog!
Wonderful blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.
Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Many thanks
Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I’m
not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast.
I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure where to start.
Do you have any points or suggestions? Appreciate it
Hiya! Quick question that’s entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when viewing from my apple iphone. I’m trying to find a
theme or plugin that might be able to correct this issue.
If you have any recommendations, please share. Appreciate it!
I’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your sites really nice,
keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back down the road. Cheers
I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you make this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz answer back as I’m looking to create my own blog and would like to know where u got this
from. kudos
Whoa! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a totally different subject but it has pretty much the same layout and design. Excellent choice of colors!
Heya just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading correctly.
I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two
different internet browsers and both show the same results.
Hey there are using WordPress for your site platform?
I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and set
up my own. Do you need any html coding expertise to make your own blog?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?
Howdy! Do you use Twitter? I’d like to follow
you if that would be ok. I’m absolutely enjoying your blog and look forward to new posts.
Good day! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing
everything I’ve worked hard on. Any recommendations?
Hey there! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with Search Engine Optimization? I’m trying
to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good gains. If you know of any please share. Many thanks!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my
own blog and was curious what all is needed to get set up?
I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web
savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kudos
Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I’m trying to figure out if its
a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
I’m not sure exactly why but this website is loading very slow for me.
Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end?
I’ll check back later on and see if the problem still exists.
Hey there! I’m at work surfing around your blog from my new iphone!
Just wanted to say I love reading through your blog and look forward to all your posts!
Keep up the superb work!
Wow that was strange. I just wrote an incredibly long comment but after
I clicked submit my comment didn’t show up. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over
again. Anyway, just wanted to say fantastic blog!
I conceive this website holds some really wonderful info for everyone
. “Morality, like art, means a drawing a line someplace.” by Oscar Wilde.
If you are going for finest contents like me, just go to see this web site
daily because it gives quality contents, thanks
What’s Taking place i’m new to this, I stumbled upon this I’ve found It positively useful and it has aided me out loads. I hope to give a contribution & assist other users like its helped me. Great job.
Its such as you learn my thoughts! You seem to know
so much about this, like you wrote the ebook in
it or something. I believe that you simply could do
with some % to drive the message home a bit, however instead of that, this is great blog.
An excellent read. I’ll definitely be back.
